In this tough economy we all still want to play our favorite games, but sometimes we need to cut back a little on our spending. Diamond Multimedia wants to keep us in the game and has recently released the Diamond Radeon HD 6770 XOC Video Card (6770PE51GEXOC). It has all of the features you have come to expect in the Radeon HD series, but is easier on your wallet. Read on to see how well it performed in our series of rigorous tests.

Diamond has come to the market with a brand new add-in GPU with the budget minded enthusiast in mind. The Diamond Radeon HD 6770 XOC is a factory overclocked video card that has both the memory and the core overclocked 50 MHz over standard settings, so you don't have to bother yourself with all of the pesky overclocking stuff. The Diamond Radeon HD 6770 XOC has taken these clocks to 900 MHz on the core and to 1250 MHz on the memory. The standard Radeon HD 6770 Graphics Card has a core clock of 850 MHz and a memory clock of 1200 MHz...

Gotta love LR for giving us the honest scoop on this. If Diamond gets P.O.d because you didn't just rubberstamp it on through, then its their loss. If they sent you something worth raving about then it gets an Editors' Choice award, this gets the Editor's Flop award for good reason. With its issues, I wouldn't even want to pay $100 since I'd have to redo the cooling thus raising the end price. Thanks guys for the heads up!

I have come to the conclusion that "FaceBook" should be renamed "FacePalm"

Long time reader, first time poster. Legit Reviews is my #1 pc component review site! Thanks for being honest in your review about this card. When I buy parts, I often look for the most bang for my buck which sometimes leads to looking into cards like this one. Checking performance levels, power usage, heat, etc. all factor into that bang for the buck. Good review.
